It is a very nice place, the Blue Room, where everybody respects the fact that we all have opinions and we're entitled to be different, so we're all really easy-going.

BUT, it has to be said that Jonny and Alex, the moderators, have a bee in their collective bonnet about text speak, which is banned from the Blue Room. Now, I'm no expert, coz I'm easily confused between text-speak and internet-speak, but I think I'm right in saying that it's okay to write things like LOL and PMSL or ROTFLMAO, but not 'm8' for 'mate', or '2moro' for 'tomorrow', for example. Does that make sense?

Look on the bright side, your English will be improved before you have to tackle your first essay on King Lear!
